Nested Table Read Twice

[BrysonRJones]

Summary

I made a nested table to check how JAWS would handle it. JAWS reads through the nested table twice before announcing the end of the document. Within each of the last four cells, a label for a span is present. The span has no actual content and instead is provided an aria-label of "blank"

Brief description of the issue. Please list any specific steps.

Example:

1. Go to http://www.google.com
2. Shift-Tab back to the About link

Expected result

I'd expect the nested table to only be read through once.

What did you expect to happen?

Actual result

The nested table was read through twice.

What actually did happen?

Example

JSBin

A test case that demonstrates the issue - provide linked test case, CodePen, JSbin, etc...

Thanks @BrysonRJones will look into it

Is this part of the test case code meant to be of any significance?

 <label for="4">Size</label>
                            <span id="4" aria-label="blank"></span>

There's no particular significance -- just labels with some text
